Inflicting Guilt On Children

Inflicting guilt and worries on children. Disturbing concepts that help none of them… Unless you want to keep them paranoid, anxious and in line. But warning, gurus of guilt and angst, Teaching them the world is an unsafe place, And that love is conditional, sometime backfires, Paralyzing them, keeps your neonates immobile, unhappy, and perpetually sad But if it meets your needs, who cares, right?

Have seen kids in Chicago Public Schools, humiliated to nothingness by teachers and principals alike.Kids beaten with yardsticks on the back of the legs. Some teachers and principals are the re-make of the Marquis de Sade.When I went to bat for the kids,I was duly humiliated.Caren, it was tragic. Kids in the hood,get mistreated the most. It's a shadow nobody mentioned,I did! At open meetings.Fearlessly! Leaving CPS was the best. Panagiota

I am so glad you are fearless Panagiota; which is why we have gravitated toward each other, for we are not afraid to take on the meanness of this crazy world, and we speak for the children!
